Personal & family use

gws Local CLI

A local command-line setup for managing your own Google data.

This application is maintained by Fan Yang for personal use and a small group of family members. It uses Google APIs through the Google Workspace CLI. Each person signs in with their own Google account and chooses which permissions to grant.

What it does

At your direction, the local tool can read, organize, create, or modify Gmail messages, calendars, Drive files, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Forms, contacts, tasks, YouTube content, and notebooks. Sending, sharing, or deleting requires an applicable command.

Google Photos access is limited to content created by this application and photos or videos you explicitly select using Google's photo picker. Available features depend on the permissions you grant and Google's API restrictions.

How it runs

The command-line tool runs on the user's own device. This website provides application information and policies. It does not provide Google sign-in, receive OAuth callback codes, or host the command-line tool's credentials.

The setup is independently maintained and is not endorsed or supported by Google. The upstream CLI is available at googleworkspace/cli.
